* In command line given to ocaml toplevel:

$ ocaml a.cmo b.cmo
        Objective Caml version 3.08.3

# B.g 1 2;;


* Inside the toplevel, you need to #load each bytecode file:

$ ocaml
        Objective Caml version 3.08.3

# #load "a.cmo";;
# #load "b.cmo";;
# let simplify x = B.g x x - A.f x;;
val simplify : int -> int = <fun>
